Get ready for a summer of toe-tapping tunes and good times under the Manitoba sky! The Selkirk Concert Series kicks off its season on June 8th, 2024, with a double dose of country music at the beautiful Selkirk Waterfront.

Just a reminder: Concerts never cancel due to rain; they relocate instead. Announcements for relocation will be made here and on social media.
